Ubuntu16.04系统安装nvidia驱动的一个简单方法

昨天运行一个建模程序的时候总感觉运行不流畅，于是想到是否跟显卡驱动有关。然后就上网找了一些方法进行安装，本以为可以很容易就解决，结果却是错误频出。本人Ubuntu16.04系统，显卡GT750 Ti。刚开始试了直接通过system setting里的software&updates进行更新安装，结果出现循环登录的情况；后来试了ppa源方式通过命令行安装，也试了从nvidia官网下载.run文件进行安装，结果出现的问题都是在安装过程中会出现error，生成/var/log/nvidia-installer.log，里面显示：

Unable to load: nvidia-installer ncurses v6 user interface

Using: nvidia-installer ncurses user interface
-> Detected 8 CPUs online; setting concurrency level to 8.
-> Installing NVIDIA driver version 418.56.
-> Running distribution scripts
   executing: '/usr/lib/nvidia/pre-install'...
-> done.
-> The distribution-provided pre-install script failed!  Are you sure you want to continue? (Answer: Abort installation)
ERROR: Installation has failed.  Please see the file '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details.  You may find suggestions on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.

然后当然还是循环登录的问题。

最后，是这样解决的：

1. 禁用Ubuntu自带驱动nouveau:在/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf中添加：blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0
2. 安装ppa源：sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa ；sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
3. sudo apt-get update
4. sudo update-initramfs -u
5. 进入system settings中的software & updates里进行additional drivers的更新，然后重启即可完成。
